All of a sudden, at pretty much the end of our project, I'm finding all kinds of good information that might be helpful. In order to fit it all in, I've decided to extend our project just a little bit, and give this section an additional name: The Hero's Journey. I don't know how many days it will add to our original Living A Larger Life project, but I thought we might follow it to a satisfactory conclusion. For starters, we have this:

The Hero's Journey is an archetypal path of individual transformation. It is a map that shows the stages of our personal process of evolution. These stages are revealed time and again in myths and legends in all cultures throughout the history of humanity. While the structure of these stages is universal, the expression is completely unique for each individual.

At different times in our lives we are aware of a calling; a push or pull forward. This starts us on a path of learning and growth. Along this path we meet inevitable challenges. Confronting these challenges forces us to evolve in new ways and directions and brings us to a journey of self-discovery. This journey involves crossing a threshold into a new territory outside of our comfort zones, finding the proper guardians (resources), and facing and transforming inner “demons” or “shadows.”

In order to effectively complete such a journey, we need maps, tools and resources.

If that's true, I think it might be helpful to make a list, or write some notes about the following:

What is your calling?

Where do you feel yourself pushed? or is it pulled?

What about your comfort zone? What does it look like?

Where does your discomfort zone begin? What might that look like?

What resources would be helpful?

Where might you look for guardians or helpers?

Do you already have helpers and guardians you could call on?

Who are those inner demons?

What do they look like?

What are their names?

Do you have a map?

Do you even know where you're going?

Or why?

What tools would be helpful?

Are their tools and talents that you already have?

If you were going to assist someone else as they prepared for a similar journey, what would you tell them? What would your advice be?

I only have time to answer the first question right now, but I plan to write them down and answer them in my journal when I have time to realy think about the answers. But to answer the first question my calling is to fight social injustice.

As each project is moved, the links in each of the "Project Overview" posts will be updated, and each of the individual posts will also be updated with a link to it's new home. We worked a lot of projects here, so it will take some time to get them all moved.

We are working on new projects beginning in Jan 2017, so come on by and see if there's anything you're interested in.

What is this?

The Prosperity Project is the brain child of Shirley Twofeathers and Daniel Knirs. We were both going through some financial difficulties, when it occurred to us that we knew a heck of a lot of prosperity techniques, but we weren't really "doing" any of them. One idea lead to another (read more)

Our Faery Guide

The Singer of Courage:In our lives we are often, even constantly, confronted with a new world, a new way of being in the world, a new way of seeing and of being seen. Ordinary living takes courage, and to rise above the ordinary into the extraordinary takes even more courage. One of the keys to courage is to consider the fear and find a way to let the energy of the fear itself power the action. That is true courage.
